The Graybar Training Alliance invites UTC attendees to our hands-on fiber training workshop. Attendees will learn tips, tricks, and troubleshooting in an interactive setting with best-in-class manufacturers. We will have demonstrations set up for fiber applications from the control center/headend to the substation, pole, and end devices.

The individual workstations that participants will train on:

• Cable/cable closures preparation… Loose tube, ADSS, OPGW

• Splice & test

• Cable & conduit restoration kit with terminals

• Tools/test & measurement kit. We will have tools required for fiber restoration for you to see and explore.
